How Much Have You Lived? - Bucket List

Updated on June 23, 2016

How to use...

You've probably heard of them: bucket lists.

A bucket list, according to Wikipedia, is:

A list of activities someone wants to do

before he or she dies

Most bucket lists are composed of wonderful goals, fun or creative things that you might want to do in your life before you die. Some people really take this to heart, spending thousands of dollars crossing off all items on their list.

But if you are a regular person, then you might find that many of those items are difficult to achieve, if not completely unrealistic. You might notice that you can't cross off all that much.

It might leave you feeling like you really haven't done much with your life.

This list is here to prove to you that you have in fact done a lot!

Read down the items below, and just keep count of how much you have done! Not all items are great, because not all life experiences are great, but they are a part of life and shape us into who we are.

If there's something you want to achieve at some point in the future, write it down on your own personal bucket list.

Feel free to add your own items in the comments below!
